Polymeric Nanoparticle Development for Nanomedicine

Inquiry

Polymeric nanoparticles are colloidal carrier systems formed from biodegradable macromolecular polymers through emulsification. Polymeric nanoparticles apply polymeric materials to drug delivery in the biomedical field, which can achieve controlled release and targeted drug delivery of poorly soluble drugs in the body and reduce the toxic and side effects of drugs. CD Formulation utilizes cutting-edge technology for creating polymeric nanoparticles to offer formulation development services for our clients, including nanocapsule and nanosphere formulations.

Classification and Advantages of Polymeric Nanoparticles

Polymeric nanoparticles (PNPs) are particles ranging from 1 to 1000 nm that can carry active compounds trapped within or surface-adsorbed on the polymer core. These two types of polymeric nanoparticles including reservoir system (nanocapsule), and matrix system (nanosphere).

The advantages of polymeric nanoparticles as carriers include the following:

  • Provides controlled release from the matrix structure to target areas of the body.
  • Encapsulates unstable molecules (such as DNA, RNA and proteins) and prevents degradation.
  • Choose to modify the surface with ligands.
  • Protect drug molecules and their specific targeting.
  • Have good stability in vivo and in vitro.

Our Workflow of Polymeric Nanoparticle Fabrication

To enter the market, polymeric nanoparticles need to go through the following steps: market demand, research and development, manufacturing technology, scaling-up feasibility, clinical trials and regulatory issues. CD Formulation specializes in the research and development of polymeric nanoparticles. We offer professional services in development, quality control research, and manufacturing of polymeric nanoparticles to our clients. And we will produce PNPs that meet your requirements through the following three steps.

Explore Our Polymeric Nanoparticle Preparation Methods

The choice of a specific method usually depends on the type of polymer, the physicochemical properties of the drug and the final desired properties of the PNPs. We have developed many different methods to prepare lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) through years of research experience, including based on monomer polymerization (such as microemulsion, emulsion, miniemulsion, controlled/living radical and interfacial polymerization technology) and based on dispersion of prefabricated polymers (such as emulsification-solvent diffusion, emulsification-solvent evaporation, nanoprecipitation, dialysis, salting out and supercritical fluid technology).

Results:

The authors review polymeric nanoparticles as drug delivery vehicles, including biological barriers affecting drug delivery, various nanoparticle designs and preparation methods. And the authors meticulously explore the current performance of polymer nanoparticles against a variety of diseases, including cancer, viral and bacterial infections. In addition, the authors introduced the emulsion polymerization method to prepare polymer nanoparticles. This method is to add monomers in the form of droplets to a solution containing surfactant micelles. When the monomers migrate from the droplets to the micelles, the micelle Polymerization occurs, forming larger polymer nanoparticles.

Here is emulsion polymerization method for preparing polymeric nanoparticles.
